I have about 12 sig brushes which are no good because with all of them, I used an eraser to get the white background off -- messy. I know there is a good method of doing this -- I did it years ago -- but I've tried many times over many months, and can't recall how I made the signature black with transparent background. Does my question make sense? How is that done? (The brush I made successfully has my name with 2008, and I just erase the date every time I use it, but I'd like to know how to do it again and do it right.) -- Helen Etters using Linux, suse 12 ___ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list Color - Color to Transparency Gunold (Did you see this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=50sAOfg8hnU ) ___ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list

Liam There are not many applications where the undo history is considered a tangible part of the current document/project being worked on. (On the same note, GIMP is the only application I know of where even the selection is considered a tangible part of the current document either. In any other application, changing selection doesn't add a step to the undo history or prompt for saving changes.) -- Stratadrake strata_ran...@hotmail.com Numbers may not lie, but neither do they tell the whole truth. ___ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list Is there any way to save the undo-history ? ___ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
